Cooking Steps
Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Add 3/4 cup water (1 1/4 cups for 4 ppl), coconut milk and rice to a medium pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Once simmering, reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 14-16 min. Remove the pot from heat. Set aside for at least 5 min, still covered.
Meanwhile, trim green beans, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Whisk together plum sauce, soy sauce and 1 tbsp water (dbl for 4 ppl) in a small bowl until well combined. Set aside. Using a strainer, drain and rinse shrimp, then pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then green beans. Cook, stirring often, until green beans are tender-crisp, 3-4 min. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to plate, then cover to keep warm.
Combine Moo Shu Spice Blend and cornstarch in a zip top bag. Add shrimp, then toss to coat. Add 1 1/2 tbsp oil to the same pan (from step 3) and reduce heat to medium. Shake off any excess coating on shrimp, then add shrimp to the pan. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook shrimp in 2 batches for 4 ppl, using 1 1/2 tbsp oil per batch.) Cook shrimp, flipping halfway through, until golden-brown and cooked through, 2-3 min.**Transfer to a plate.
Season rice with 1/4 tsp salt (dbl for 4 ppl), then fluff with a fork. Divide rice between plates. Top with green beans and shrimp. Drizzle plum sauce mixture over top. Sprinkle with crispy shallots.
